    Extraction and fractionation effects on antiplasmodial activity and phytochemical composition of Palicourea hoffmannseggiana
    (2021) Ohashi, Leticia Hiromi; Gontijo, Douglas da Costa; Nascimento, Maria Fernanda Alves do; Margalho, Luciano Ferreira; Brandão, Geraldo Célio; Oliveira, Alaíde Braga de
    The present study on Palicourea hoffmannseggiana, which was collected at Marapanim, state of Pará, Brazil, comprises the preparation of different stem and leaf extracts and fractions. Ethanol, hydroethanol, and water extracts were prepared by several methods and evaluated for in vitro activity against resistant Plasmodium falciparum (W2 strain), disclosing a low parasite growth inhibition effect ( < 50 %). Dereplication by UPLC-DAD-ESI −MS of the leaf ethanol extract showed the presence of two known alkaloids, lyalosidic and strictosidinic acids, along with a sinapoyl ester of lyalosidic acid, with m/z 719.33 [M +H] + , which is possibly a new monoterpene indole alkaloid representative. Sequential liquid-liquid acid-base alkaloid separations from the leaf ethanol extract as well as directly from leaf powder afforded fractions of increased parasite growth inhibition, reaching up to 92.5±0.7%. The most bioactive fractions were shown to contain the β-carboline alkaloids harmane and 4-methyl-β-carboline, along with N-methyl-tryptamine and N-acetyl-tryptamine, while monoterpene indole alkaloids were detected in inactive fractions of these processes. The present results demonstrate that these preliminary fractionation methods can lead to significantly active fractions supporting an adequate scale-up to carrying out the isolation of anti-plasmodial compounds.

    Dereplication of Palicourea sessilis ethanol extracts by UPLC-DAD-ESI-MS/MS discloses the presence of hydroxycinnamic acid amides and the absence of monoterpene indole alkaloids.

    Secondary metabolites characterization of ethanol extracts of Palicourea sessilis leaves and stems by UPLC-DAD ESI-MS/MS led to putative identification of hydrolysable tannins in leaf extract (ESI negative mode) while hydroxycinnamic acid amides (HCA) such as N-p-coumaroylputrescine and N-feruloylagmatine were detected in both leaf and stems extracts in the ESI positive mode. Secondary metabolites quantification data showed a higher content of total phenolic in the leaf extract while the total alkaloids contents are statistically equivalent in both of the extracts. Furthermore, monoterpene indole alkaloids were not detected in both extracts. The presence of HCA is here firstly reported for a Palicourea species. This finding increases the classes of secondary metabolites occurring in this genus.
